Love Is Deadly

Chapter Six

It's 8:00 in the morning on a Saturday and my brother is in his room sleeping. My father stayed the night at the hospital with my mom and I'm sitting on my bed scrolling through tumblr.

I was supposed to hang out with Cassidy today but she got sick with the flu. I would hang out with Sam but him and his girlfriend went to the beach so I'm stuck being bored all day.

I planned on going to the hospital today but I didn't know when my dad was coming back. He still doesn't know about my car, and I plan on not telling him. It would just add more stress on him.

As I'm getting out of bed to go brush my teeth my phone buzzes and I look to see a text message from Noah:

Wanna hang out today?

I stared at the screen contemplating what to reply with. I didn't know if I wanted to hang with him but I had no one else so I thought why not. I reply to him and say:

sure, can we go see my mom first?

He replies quickly after that:

Sure :) be there in 10 min

I quickly picked out an outfit which was a pink flannel, with light blue skinny jeans and pink toms. Simple but cute.

I sneak my way downstairs before Josh can have a chance to fully wake me and ask questions.

I grab my phone and walk outside the house and I see Noah in his car. I walk up to the car and knock on the window and Noah rolls it down.

"Just couldn't wait to see me huh"? He smirks.

"No, I just wanted to get out of the house before Josh catches me and interrogates me". I mumble and Noah nods, unlocking the door.

I go to the other side of the car and open the passenger's seat, sitting down.

"You look like a mom". Noah mumbles.

"Excuse me"?

"I said, you look like a mom. Who had 3 kids". He laughs and I glare at him, his laughing coming to a stop once seeing my glare.

"Let's just go please". I mutter and he chuckles, starting the car and soon pulling out, driving to the hospital.

Once we pulled up to the hospital, Noah found a quick parking spot and before I walked out he grabbed me hand.

"Do you want me to go in there with you"?

"No". I say bluntly and he looks away with a look of hurt.

"I'm sorry. It's just I don't want my dad to see you". I say softly and he nods and waits for me to get out.

I walk into the hospital and walk to the front desk.

"I'm here to see my mom Jennifer Davis". I say and she smiles, beginning to type on the keyboard in front of her.

"Room 242". She says handing me a visitors pass and I say thank you, walking off to go see my mom.

As I step into the elevator I hear a voice from behind me.

"Wait, can you hold it"!

I press one of the buttons and it holds it open for longer.

A boy about my age walks in. He has black curly hair and looks kind of like Noah in some way.

The boy has tattoos on his arms and neck. Exactly like Noah.

"Thanks". He smiles holding his hand. "Jaden". He introduces himself.

"Ava". I smile shaking his hand.

"What are you here for"? He asks and then laughs a little.

"I'm sorry. I just made it sound like we're criminals. What I meant to say was who are you here to see"?

We both laugh and I tell him about my mom and he tells me he's in there for his brother who got in a car accident.

After small talk we exchanged and went our separate ways.

I find my mom's room quickly and as soon as I walk in I see my fathers sleeping on the chair beside my mother and she's sleeping with multiple IV's hooked into her arm.

I sit on the other chair across from my father and hold my mom's arm.

"You're probably not going to hear this but it's me. Ava. I love you so much mom and I hope I never lose you. We've had so much fun over these years and now is not your time to go. You have to stay here. Too watch Josh and I have babies, and our babies have babies. Stay strong mom". I say and kiss her hand. She then opens her eyes slowly.

"Ava"?

"Yes mom"?

"I'll be alright honey. I love you too". She smiles and closes her eyes again.

My dad wakes up and as soon as he sees me he yawns and stretches, turning his attention back to my mom.

"Has she woke up yet"?

I nod my head and he suddenly gets angry.

"Why didn't you tell me"?!

"Dad stop yelling you'll wake up mom".

"No you were supposed to wake me when she woke up. When did you get here anyway"? He asks, his voice still in an angry tone.

"How was u supposed to know dad. I got here 10 minutes ago". I say getting angrier by the minute.

"Never mind. Just go".

"You can't kick me out, I came to visit mom".

"Just f*****g go Ava. I'm tired of your bullshit. If you talk back one more time I'm kicking you out the house instead". He says and my mom must've heard because she clears her throat.

"Ava, would you listen to your father please. I'm tired of the yelling".

"Fine mom. If you need me I won't be here". I say angrily before walking back out to Noah's car.

Noah's sitting in his car on his phone and once he sees me he unlocks the door and continues talking on the phone.

"What do you mean she didn't come home last night".
